Sample chapters are also available online through Amazon. For fun, I’ve also made available a PDF sample of an old beginning. Fate of the Red Queen – Chapter 1 This opening chapter was changed to what it now is, in the published one, thanks to advice by author Layton Green. His books are among my favorites, and I am incredibly grateful he took the time to read sample pages and discuss them with me. This is another stand alone book within the demi-god Humna’s arc. It is absolutely not necessary to read them in order, especially as his arc is only inferred through the books.

Seek the Monster is forthcoming in late 2018, or early 2019.PDF samples of Chapter 1-2 This is the third book in the Humna Arc, and is also stand alone.
